About our new build homes service
Starting a new build project is a journey that transforms a vacant plot into a functional, modern living space. At Design N Build, we specialise in the delivery of new build homes that meet the rigorous demands of modern UK building regulations. Our expertise covers every stage of the process, assisting private individuals looking for a bespoke family home and professional developers focused on luxury property development. We understand that a new build is more than just a structure; it is an investment in quality and efficiency. From the initial site clearance and laying of the foundations to the intricate M&E installations and final decorative finishes, our team ensures every detail is handled with precision. While we are known for residential construction, our wider experience in commercial and industrial construction allows us to manage complex sites and larger scale residential schemes with ease. We bridge the gap between architectural vision and physical reality, providing a structured approach that prioritises structural integrity, thermal performance, and high quality craftsmanship in every room.

Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to build a new home?
The duration of a new build project depends on the size and complexity of the design. A standard detached three bedroom home typically takes between 9 to 12 months from foundations to handover. Larger luxury property development projects or those with complex site conditions may take longer. We provide a detailed schedule during the pre construction phase.
Do your new builds come with a warranty?
Yes. Every new build we complete is covered by a 10 year structural warranty, such as NHBC or a functional equivalent. This protects your investment against any structural defects. Additionally, individual components like boilers, appliances, and windows carry their own manufacturer warranties for your peace of mind.
Do I need to have my own architectural plans?
While we are primary residential construction specialists, we can certainly work with your existing architect. If you do not have drawings yet, we can provide a full design and build service where we manage everything from the initial concept and planning applications through to the final construction and interior fit out.
How do you determine the cost of a new build?
The cost is influenced by many factors including site preparation, material choices, and the complexity of the structural design. We provide a comprehensive, transparent breakdown of costs following a review of your plans. This ensures there are no hidden surprises and that the budget aligns with your finish expectations.
Will the project comply with all Building Regulations?
Absolutely. We ensure every stage of the build is inspected and approved by Building Control. We handle the submission of all necessary notices and coordinate with inspectors for key milestones like foundation pouring, drainage, and structural framing, ending with the final completion certificate.
